Where to buy the Honor 5X

The Honor 5X is now available here in the U.S., and Huawei is going straight to consumers with its sales from Amazon and Newegg. And even though it doesn't officially go on sale until January 31, you can put down your money on a pre-order and get it first thing when it's officially launched.

Horrible looking software AND it's launching on an outdated Android build! The hardware looks very nice though, save for the black border around the display. Every phone with a white front panel that I've seen has them, just not usually this big. In the end this is a solid deal for $199 though.

I think is just too early to complaint about the software. We need to try out the device and take for a field test, only then we can have a real assessment of how the device behaves under daily use. Also, for that price range, it is just "AMAZING" that they have been able to get such a high quality device.
One last thing, they needs to come out with a decent case, they are trying to make some headlines, well deliver good quality accessories with the phone and you got a sale!

I really don't understand all the complaining about EMUI. I see no reason for complaint. I have EMUI 3.1 on my Huawei Ascend Mate 2 and it runs smoothly and without problems. I guess if it isn't stock, featureless Android, it isn't cool.

At 200 dollars this should scare the hell out of a lot of OEM's for what it offers. Forget subsidized phones for the masses. I only buy unlocked and outright myself. Throw Nova launcher prime on it and who could complain?

So this is an updated P8 Lite. Great...that 615 processor doesn't do a damn bit of good if you are a more moderate user of Android. They need to dump EMUI and leave Android unskinned. The performance gains will be noticeable.
